Hero or villain? (I'm not a big Marvel guy, but from what I do know I get the feeling that it COULD be either. It is entirely possible that I'm missing an obvious indicator in this case due to my ignorance.)

Hero, as noted in the title.

Really! Check the url.

Yep they're Flickr files. I've embedded them the same way I always do. :/

Not sure I was editing this post on a couple other forums. It's possible it was added in after the original post. I tend to do that. I'll preview and post and then find something that I've missed in the preview mode. :/

There changed them to the fancy version so you can find Flickr. They do look nicer with little foot notes added by the "Share" option, rather than the plain URL.

I don't mind. I'll be keeping my list to myself, though. I kind of like the anonymous nature of the voting here. Especially in a case like this, where there are so MANY great entries, that I'd feel bad leaving out so many, even were I to list my top ten. It is going to be a tough vote, and I'm glad I won't have anybody wondering about why I made my selections. It'll be hard enough justifying them to myself.

Photography note: Ideally, your submission photos should be in landscape format (wider than it is tall) or cropped to a square (do I really need to explain what a square is?)

Just thought I'd remind my fellow competitors, since the main images for 21 of the 39 entrants (so far) are in portrait format...

It should be no secret that the brackets will look like below, with square images (only 8 entrants are in the ideal square). If you don't crop them yourself, flickr will from the center... as it stands now, we'll be seeing a lot of pictures of mechs with their heads and feet chopped off.

This is a revised version of my previous mech since my old batman mech didn't have an enclosed cockpit. Please disregard my old post! If I find a way to delete it I will. I hope this one is acceptable:

OG Batman Mech:Batman returns in his original colors to save the day. Multiple jet engines allow this mech to fly at high speeds and hover for extended periods of time. Designed for speed and agility, this batman mech is as capable on the ground as it is in the air. If any enemy manages to hit the elusive batman mech, its armor is there to protect against radiation and explosives. Armed with twin EMP guns, batman is able to remotely shut down all enemy mechs and electronic vehicles in the area. Shoulder mounted cannons are available for heavy artillery, but as always, batman does not shoot to kill.
